== Tools to translate ==
+
== Translation workflow ==
 +
We use 2 tools to add translations to Open Food Facts:
 +
* Open Food Facts itself (you'll need to create a contributor account);
 +
* CrowdIn (you can log in with a 3rd party account or create an account). [https://translate.openfoodfacts.org Start translating on Crowdin].
   −
We use this wiki to add translations to Open Food Facts.
+
'''Also please join your local channel on Slack and the ''#translation'' channel so that we can coordinate.

== Things to translate (in order of impact you'll have) ==
 +
=== High priority translations===
 +
* [https://translate.openfoodfacts.org Translations of the Web app - Mobile apps]
 +
* [[Translations - Names of nutrients]]
 +
* [[Translations - Slogan]]

=== Medium priority translations ===

==== Taxonomies ====
 +
===== What are taxonomies? =====
 +
Taxonomies make Open Food Facts work like magic. They are our way to organize information and automatically make sense of products.
 +
 
 +
This will enable :
 +
* Suggestions in your language, to make contribution faster
 +
* Auto-detection of categories, enabling worldwide comparison between food.
 +
* Multilingual products automatically translated to your language (if the item in the taxonomy is translated to your language)
   −
* [[Translations - Index page]] - New in May 2015 redesign: needs to be translated in all languages
+
===== Categories, labels, nova, ingredients…directly on Open Food Facts =====
* [[Translations - Discover page]] - New in May 2015 redesign: needs to be translated in all languages
+

* [[Translations - Contribute page]] - New in May 2015 redesign: needs to be translated in all languages
+
We have a new system to translate taxonomies directly on the Open Food Facts web site. To access it, just go to a page that lists some tags (categories, labels) like the one for categories in German: <br>
 +
https://world-de.openfoodfacts.org/categories and then add '''?translate=add''' to the url like this:<br>
 +
https://world-de.openfoodfacts.org/categories?translate=add<br><br>
   −
* [[Translations - Web site interface]]
+
It will show a list of the categories that are not yet translated to German, and you can type in a translation. Just click on save, and that's it.
* [[Translations - Names of nutrients]]
+
Benefits of this new method to translate taxonomies:
 +
# No need to go to the wiki, load a huge list etc.
 +
# You see instantaneously the list of entries that have no translation in the language that interests you
 +
# The list is sorted by the number of products: you can prioritize the translations to first translate the entries that are on a lot of products
 +
# There is a link to the actual products that have this category, label etc. -> that can be very useful to understand what kind of products we are talking about, and also to see how the category etc. is written on the actual products.
 +
# You can add the '''&translate=add''' to any page that lists tags, so you can filter it by country, by any other facet etc.
   −
* [[Translations - How to add a product]]
+
If you want to see the list of entries that have pending translations, you can add '''&translate=review'''
* [[Translations - Frequently Asked Questions]]
+
And if you want to see both the list of entries to be translated and with pending translations, you can add '''&translate=edit''' (useful if you made a mistake and want to change a translation)
* [[Translations - Press and blogs]]
+
Here is what it looks like:

* [[Translations - Slogan]]

* [[Translations - Marketing]] (posters, logos…)
  −
